The term normally excludes fertilizers, plant and animal nutrients, food additives, feed additives and veterinary drug. Maximum Residue Limit refers to the maximum concentration of a pesticide residue in food resulting from use of a pesticide. It is expressed in milligrams of pesticide residue per kilogram of the food. Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) refers to an unavoidable pesticide residue or a contaminant arising from environmental sources including former agricultural uses and their uses have been nationally banned.

(2) Detected Pesticide residues categorized as Hazardous Substances Type 4 under the Hazardous Substance Act B.E (1992), shall not exceed the Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) prescribed in the List No. 2 annexed to this Notification. (3) Detected Pesticide residues other than (1) and (2) shall not exceed the limits recommended by Codex Alimentarius Commission, Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. However, these limits shall not be applied for the Hazardous Substances Type 4 under the Hazardous Substance Act B.E.2535 (1992). Clause 5 The Analytical Methods shall be as prescribed in the List No. 3 annexed to this Notification. Clause 6 This Notification shall come into force as from the day following date of its publication in the Government Gazette onwards.
